There’s something special about stepping away from screens and feeling pieces in real life, watching how they catch the light, trying them on and experiencing that Lanamara effect.

Last weekend, we had the joy of doing just that with our Adelaide Popup Shop at Fon Salon on King William Road. It was a slow, light filled afternoon of conversation and plenty of jewellery being tried on (and taken home).

We wanted to share a little of that day with you – and how your support went beyond just shopping.

An afternoon of connection, craft and calm

Guests were greeted with complimentary sparkling wine from award winning winemakers Cuvee Co and handcrafted chocolates from Adixions and took their time exploring our jewellery collection and a curated selection of one-of-a-kind samples of our handcrafted bags and baskets.

We loved seeing how you styled everything, the Heart Stopper Necklace continued to be a favourite, statement earrings for the party season and handwoven bags and baskets being held and imagined for the summer ahead.

No rush, no pressure – just a lovely slow, steady rhythm of trying, asking, chatting and choosing. Exactly how we believe shopping handcrafted pieces should feel.

One-of-a-kind samples under $100

For this Popup, we brought samples from past collections of one-of-a-kind bags and baskets, all under $100, available only at the event. 

Beautiful experiments in shape and texture that deserved to be loved and out in the world.

Watch this space as we'll be adding an Sample Outlet soon to our online store.

The Spirit of Giving

To celebrate the spirit of giving this season, we offered a gift with purchase to the first 20 customers on the day – a small way of saying thank you for showing up, both for us and for handcraft.

For every purchase made at the pop-up, $5 was donated to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation – a cause very close to our hearts.

Thanks to you, we were able to contribute to their ongoing work in research, awareness and support. Your choices that day didn’t just support a small, handcrafted brand – they helped move important work forward for women and families navigating ovarian cancer.

For that, we are deeply grateful.

 

What you loved most

Here’s what our Adelaide community loved most:

Soften a tailored shirt or your Xmas day dress with delicate layered necklaces 

Dress up easy, neutral outfits for Christmas, New Year and summer dinners with confidence inducing statement earrings.

Discover our Heart Stopper Collection – gifted between sisters & friends, mothers & daughters, as a way to mark a big year or just to say “I love you”.

We’ve curated a “pop-up favourites” edit online so you can explore (or revisit) the pieces that were most loved on the day.

Thank you, Adelaide

More than anything, we left the day feeling incredibly thankful.

Events like this remind us why we do what we do. Lanamara has always been about more than “just jewellery” – it’s about connection, stories, and keeping the legacy of handcraft alive in a world that moves quickly.

If you joined us at Fon Salon: thank you.
If you couldn’t make it but are reading this from afar: you are just as much a part of this story.

We’re already dreaming about where we might pop up next.

With love,
The Lanamara team 💛
